"Space42 Boosts Earth Monitoring with Three New SAR Satellites"
Space42 and ICEYE launched three new SAR satellites, enhancing Earth observation capabilities and contributing to global geospatial intelligence efforts from Abu Dhabi.
- On November 2, 2025, Space42 successfully launched three new SAR satellites, Foresight-3, Foresight-4, and Foresight-5, into Low Earth Orbit (LEO) from Florida.
- The new satellites expand Space42s Earth observation constellation, significantly improving capabilities for applications like climate monitoring and disaster response, including vital search and rescue operations.
- ICEYE, a leader in Synthetic Aperture Radar technology, collaborated with Space42 to enhance geospatial intelligence, allowing for more accurate and timely data collection from space.
Why It Matters
The launch of these satellites not only strengthens the UAEs sovereignty in space technology but also enhances global capabilities in Earth observation, crucial for addressing climate change and emergency situations.
